Today I held a meeting with the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance of Ukraine. To close the budget gap and continue the necessary payments, parliamentarians and the Government must work in the most coordinated way possible.

The list of laws and government decisions that need to be adopted is absolutely specific. This is not about preferences or politics. Every decision means funding so that Ukraine can live and defend itself. I ask parliamentarians, already this week, to deliver this financial result for Ukraine through their votes.

And we need to examine what is happening in the Tax Service and other agencies, and whether they are truly working one hundred percent for the state budget. And we need to put an end to the issue of fraudulent call centers in Ukraine. Draft laws establishing strict criminal liability are also on the agenda.

I ask all parliamentarians to support the decision to dismiss the Prosecutor General tomorrow. I have submitted the motion for his dismissal to the Verkhovna Rada. Ukraine has seen the reasons for this, and there should be enough votes.

From the evening address.
